Quote from: kream on November 26, 2018, 03:33:32 PMsame dude. I slept but didn't eat/exercise/move/get the sun; yet I got to my current height which just makes me feel like "wow, I definitely could've been taller if I wasn't a dumbass." and with my current career goals I won't be able to afford/attend a LL surgery even though I'm pretty sure right now would be the prime time for me (old enough but also young enough where the self-healing would go really well/quickly, naturally pain-tolerant)
i know this is a month old comment but could you explain? Dunno if you're being sarcastic or not though; are you maternal height affects males more than their fathers? Or was this sarcasm. Wondering cause I'm much taller than my mother; not much compared to my father though.
no i wasnt sarcastic at all. its science. u've alrdy got the sperm from ur father it cant get any bigger, the only thing that will make the thing grow bigger now (if its a male embroyonic formation) is 'mom' and her genes.
and dont worry too much, we've all lost heights some decent amounts some less some more. dont fret over it.
Would you be able to forgive yourself if you stunted your height?

174cm (roughly 5.8.5'') which i know may not be as short as others; but a lot of factors as a child (went from a sportty kid into quitting every sport because my coach/gym teacher said tl;dr too short to keep up with everyone), and all my friends teasing me for my height (Before I grew at all I was like 4'10'', also because I'm Asian, which I know better now that Asian people were actually growing more recently :/)
It's also because after my growth spurts & such I was thinking for a while I was 5'10'' because my taller friends would say they were 6'0'' and doctors measured my older brother at 173cm (but I'm taller than him) so I was working hard to get myself to 5'11'', only to learn I wasn't even 5'9''. Even if I try not to worry about my height it always eats away at the back of my head that I could've been taller than I am.

that's actually interesting I didn't know that; would that mean most males get the "shorter" genetic if their mothers are shorter than their fathers? or if there's an article that explains this stuff could you link me so I could give it a read?

No.I'll blame myself for a whole lifetime.
I didn't take good exercise.I didn't sleep well.....etc.
These can't get off my mind.
I had the same thoughts blaming me for not doing hgh when I was younger but thank God I reached 6'1 but 6'3 would have been my dream.
